• Walking into any gym for the first time can be a
  daunting experience.
• Walking into a boxing gym can be an intimidating
  if not terrifying experience.
• For experienced members using a gym, it can be
  easy to forget those first experiences, but these
  fears are very real for first-timers, and sadly,
  prevent a lot of would be participants from
  getting valuable self-defence experience and top
  fitness training.

• It is hard enough to think about being the new
  person in class. For the inexperienced, there are
  also sometimes false perceptions that boxing gyms
  are places of violence.
• In reality, there are several different types of
  boxing gyms. There are the gyms that exist mostly
  to identify and train professional fighters. The
  vast majority of boxing gyms are for using boxing
  training as a method for promoting fitness.
• It makes sense boxers are amongst the fittest
  people in the world. Some clubs will over the
  whole spectrum of services. They mostly exist to
  train people looking for improvements in their
  fitness and they will train professional fighters
  as well.

• The best thing any newcomer can do when walking
  in to a boxing gym for the first time is to come
  with the right attitude. Everyone was a beginner
  at some stage. Dont try to pretend you have
  experience if you have none.
• Dont go at all unless you are willing to put the
  effort in. It is a waste of time and money. Be
  willing to ask questions if you have them and
  listen to the answers and the instructions the
  trainers give you.
• It is tedious enough for trainers to have to
  answer the same questions when they are asked by
  different people. It is truly annoying to have to
  repeat them to the same person because they
  arent respectful enough to pay attention.

• If you are going to start taking classes at a
  boxing gym it might be a good idea to at least do
  a little reading and practice some basic skills
  like skipping and push ups.
• It also would hurt to do a little fitness
  training before you go so you dont feel
  completely humiliated from a fitness perspective.
  
• Having some fitness gives newcomers a little more
  confidence which can be useful.

• Remember that boxing gyms are made up of a lot of
  different personalities and that (depending on
  the type of gym you are going to) people are
  there for different reasons.
• You may actually train with people who are going
  to step into the ring to fight, so dont be
  surprised if they seem to ignore you or arent
  friendly.
• They will probably just be focused.

• You will find that the trainers attitude varies
  too. The more effort you put in and the more
  consistent you are with your training the more
  attention they will probably give you.
• Boxing gyms have a very large turnaround of
  people who turn up a few times and then
  disappear. The trainers probably wont even
  bother to get to know you until you have been
  there for at least a couple of months.
• Like most things in life, the more you put into
  it the more you will get out of it. Go and give
  boxing training a shot, but more importantly give
  it enough effort and time to see if it really is
  for you.
